A rare and exceptional decorative pillow in which antique Persian carpet textile covers both the front and back faces — an unusual and luxurious construction that surrounds the pillow entirely in the richly colored, finely knotted surface of a century-old handwoven rug. The Persian carpet from which this pillow was crafted was woven more than a hundred years ago by skilled artisans whose work deserves to be seen, touched, and lived with rather than stored away.
Repurposing antique carpet fragments into pillows is a practice with a long history in the rug world — a way of honoring the artisan's craft while giving a damaged or fragmentary textile a beautiful new purpose. This pillow is available as part of a pair with Pillow 1463 at a gallery discount. Please contact us for pair pricing.
